program PDFViewWin;
// this program opens and closes PDF-files with Acrobat or Adobe Reader
// author: Uwe Stöhr
{The problematic is the following:
A PDF-file should be modified while it is opened with Acrobat.
This is not possible because Acrobat understands itself as editor, not as
reader and therefore opens PDFs always with write access, so that other
programs cannot modifiy them.
The idea to solve the problem is the following:
The file that should be shown in Acrobat is copied and then renamed -
the suffix "-preview" is attached. The renamed copy is opened by Acrobat
while the unrenamed version can be modified. When the modified version should
be displayed, the eventually opened renamed version is closed in Acrobat and
the modified version is copied, renamed and opened in Acrobat.}
